Old people have brittle bones. ..my mil tripped on a sidewalk crack and broke her shoulder in 4 places...but she was trying to grab my nephews stroller. .daddy didn't leash the dogs and when 1of the 2 bolted into traffic he let go of the stroller and ran..the stroller turned sideways and as she tried to prevent it from flipping over she wiped out hard but little man was ok!!!..she's 72 so gravity is really working against her these last few years...

It's kinda surprising because she's barely 60 and a very active woman. She didn't slip on ice or anything, just rolled her ankle when she took a step wrong.

Happy Valentine's Day, April!

Last night, just as I was falling asleep, my mom called me from the casino and said she twisted her ankle and she couldn't drive her car home so me and the wife had to go and pick her up. My wife took her straight to the hospital to see what all happened, two hours later they came home with my mom wearing a cast. She somehow managed to break her ankle just casually walking around.:-?

i tore a tendon in my ankle in hs so badly i wish i didnt tear it so badly lol. really though it will just fucking dislocate from the smallest of things happening. like a fucking pebble i stepped and slid on in the shop, which caused it to pop right out while i was still standing.

doesnt even hurt anymore, just kinda surprising when it happens. just like whelp that happened again.

Old people trip over their own thoughts. .
But seriously Jesus should issue a recall and reinforce all ankles over 50!!

Happy Valentine's Day

She probably came down on the side of her foot and broke either her lateral or medial malleolus. They are pretty common fractures. So you were right, age has nothing to do with them. Usually these kind of things happen when you hit a tear in carpet or a slightly upthrust piece of concrete or a hole in the ground.

Or like crushing a wine box underfoot.

Yeah, she said she stumbled a bit and came down hard on the one side snapping the smaller of the two bones just above her ankle, Doc said it was a clean break and everything was in place, she's just not to put any pressure on it for a few weeks. I'm giving her shit and telling her not to kick the machines anymore when she's losing. :smile:
